LOTW July 2 - 9
I can’t believe I just spent maybe 2 hours (?) selecting something from every category and critiquing them, and I lost it!!   Didn’t save a draft (first lessons were given in Computer Science how many years ago??  

PLEASE BE SURE TO LEAVE SOME COMMENTS AND SPRINKLE CHEERY CHERRY HAPPINESS!

This work struck me with its powerful visual expression and perfect quote.  The use of media colors and stencil work is fantastic.  Impressive congruence of the brushstrokes for detail.  Over all just a powerful conveyance of feelings.

Amazing work and detail on this tag; the stitching, the inking, splatter, metal 1776 number and entire color use. It is a creative, artistic, modern take on celebration of Independence Day.  

​​​​​​Cards
I separated this category from tags, it was so difficult to pick just one, SO many beautiful cards!

I loved the mix of patterned papers, the colored images and ink-edged coral.  A lot of time was spent on the coloring and it turned out wonderful!  Adorable!

It’s Christmas in July!  There are many other example of Dianne’s work, but I especially loved this for the colors and sparkles of a more elegant take on Christmas, with just the right amount of red popping in there.  All the elements have been artfully placed, just a lovely creation!

This artwork is truly amazing to me.  She drew a dragonfly, chose wonderful impactful colors and used not only one kind of medium, but 3; watercolors, acrylic and colored pencils!  Amazing detail on the wings and eyes.

Although I hate to think of fall already, this planner layout brings in the season with bright happy colors.  I liked the stencil work with texture and uniquely chosen blend of colors.  Lovely job! 

Traditional scrapbook layout

THIS was one of the hardest!  SO many, many wonderful layouts!

This was very eye-catching to me.  The use of inks, splatter, stencil, black & white layered ephemera, the pop of turquoise is amazing.  Added with the texture from distressing the circle edge, the and turquoise acrylic or paste “opal polish” on the color wheel balances it all out.  Her photo reflects the moment, it was good to scrap this.   Fabulous work!

How often is it that we see a photo this large on our pages?  I can see everyone’s faces, their pretty dress and table setting!  To top it off, the photo is masterfully laid and adorned here.  What a fun event!  Excellent!

This makes me want to go digital, the leaves are so real-looking, love the striped “paper”, big button and splatter work which encompasses motherhood right there!  Great work, Laura!

What an honor to have my LO selected for LOTW. I love that stencil and feel compelled to now use it for a cheerier subject matter! Going to go in for a closer look at the other selected work....I saw a drawing that I can''t believe is a drawing!
